Precision Industrial Contractors and United Launch Alliance have teamed up to work together on a few projects. First off, we had our hand in relocating ULA’s Altas Rocket assemble equipment and tooling from their facility in Littleton, Colorado and relocate it to the newly expanded United Launch Alliance facility in Decatur, Alabama. The move was a great success thanks to all hard working employees. Second, Precision Industrial is currently working on a project for United Launch Alliance which entails a Program Management effort associated with the development of a Task Statement to move ULA San Diego’s major weld components to the Decatur, AL facility. This work will continue with many phases and is currently projected to run through April of 2012. So stay tuned to our site for upcoming information!

Precision Employees 'Serve Time' at the Federal Corrections Institute!
Date Posted:
1/1/2007
This past winter, Precision Employees did their 'time' while working on a project for the Federal Corrections Institute in Aurora, Colorado. The project was complex. To begin with, the work involved the demolition and removal of components for the old Boiler room. The difficulty was that the old Boiler room was inside the prison, making security clearance especially cumbersome! Each day, employees had to undergo security screening to get both in and out of the facility. This amounted to 2 hours each day! Additionally, all tools had to be logged in and out every morning and night! The large rolling dumpsters that were used to remove the debris and components, were under intense scrutiny to ensure that there were not any escapees!
